The week's question

The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

More generally, we could have been done with this unpleasantness months ago if Trump were as innocent as he claims and simply took his day in court.

Indeed. And for some reason, team Trump apparently doesn't even want to present "his side" before the election in response to Jack Smith's 165 page explication of all the evidence that isn't shielded by presidential immunity. I wonder why?

newsweek.com - Judge chutkan gives donald trump new deadline jack smith case

S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan agreed Thursday to allow former President Donald Trump to file his response to the Justice Department's special counsel Jack Smith's immunity filing until after the presidential election, a filing shows.

Trump's lawyers had asked for until November 21 to submit their retort to the filings submitted by federal prosecutors, but Chutkan set the deadline for November 7—two days after the election, which is still an extension from the original October 17 deadline.

On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan partly unsealed Smith's lengthy filing aimed at convincing Chutkan, who is presiding over Trump's federal election subversion case, that the former president's alleged offenses are private, rather than official acts of office, and can therefore remain in his indictment.
